High temperatures were around 50 degrees during our trek into Wyoming. Winds were varied from 6 to 14 mph with afternoon gusts to 22 mph.
Terry Michaels, Rebecca Kosten, Sue Ehlmann and I searched off and on for 14 hours over the two days for the Red-flanked bluetail. Congratulations to the birders who saw it on Monday. We have not heard of any sightings since.
I bet we could draw and map of the area by memory. The search was enjoyable; success would have made it better.
On the way home on Wednesday, we detoured to the Larimer County Landfill. The Gyrfalcon was not at Trilby and Taft, but we did see it chase a Gull over the Landfill and then disappear to the north!
After dark, we visited a friend's home west of Loveland. We listened for owls for a couple of hours but found none.
